Photoelectric Sensor Fault Finding Perth
Lectro Power Systems provides electrical troubleshooting for photoelectric sensors used for product detection, counting, positioning, and machine sequencing.
Symptoms We Resolve
COMMON PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR FAULTS
DIRTY OR BLOCKED OPTICS
Dust, product residue, or contamination can prevent the sensor from reliably detecting the target.MISALIGNMENT
Through-beam and retro-reflective systems can fail when the sensor or reflector moves slightly out of position.FALSE TRIGGERING
Reflective surfaces, background objects, changing product colours, or electrical interference may create unreliable detection.LOSS OF SUPPLY VOLTAGE
A failed power supply, fuse, terminal, or machine cable can leave the sensor completely inactive.DAMAGED SENSOR CABLE
Moving machinery and repeated flexing can break conductors internally while the outer insulation still appears intact.PLC INPUT FAULTS
A healthy sensor output may not be reaching or registering at the machine controller.
The Lectro Advantage
WHY CHOOSE LECTRO POWER SYSTEMS?
SENSOR & PLC DIAGNOSTICS
We test both the field device and the controller input.MACHINE SEQUENCE EXPERIENCE
We understand how one missing detection signal can stop an entire automated cycle.PRACTICAL REPLACEMENT SUPPORT
Where required, we can identify compatible industrial replacement sensors.
